 @ISIDEWITHasked…6mos6MO

No but have it legally binding that the representatives have to vote for who they say they will. Also, have the same number of house and senate members per state be representatives. Have all citizens rank the candidates and if there is a tie the second highest person wins. Abolish the winner take all system.

 @8MKJFKZ from North Carolina  answered…4yrs4Y

I don't believe I know enough about how the electoral college works to make a well-informed decision, because I know that it can be both good and bad, I will need to do plenty of research before coming to a conclusion. That being said, it does often seem unnecessary and/or discouraging to democracy.
